G’day.
![My good self](https://i0.wp.com/lh5.googleusercontent.com/-VmG4Nm454vM/Tm4-vV_t5vI/AAAAAAAAAF4/jGUjjS_WCWI/n61202008_37392182_5706.jpg?resize=344%2C558&ssl=1)
I’m Rob. I am neither Australian, nor do I play the bass. I acquired a recumbent in early July 2011, and created this blog shortly afterwards to catalogue a variety of minor adventures thereafter. Whilst the bulk of posts are likely to be recumbent related, I may meander gently onto other topics as described on the ‘About the Blog’ page.
I currently live in south Glasgow, and commute via bicycle and train a sixty mile round trip daily. I don’t recommend spending the best part of four hours a day travelling, but if you have to at least pick a method where you can either be asleep or outdoors.
I’m married to one of the fine ladies in the classical saxophone quartet Sax Ecosse and stumble around on a baritone sax myself from time to time. I volunteer with St John Ambulance and British Red Cross and also run the first aid information website Tower Medical.
I have a background in maths and statistical analysis (can I talk to you about supersonic rats?), and currently work as a project manager.
